I was at the pet store in the mall <shudder> today to check on their
ferrets. They had just gotten a shipment of adorable kits (and although I
was tempted, I'm not sure how Dervish would like a little sibling without
me consulting her!!), and so I sat for a while and petted them. Numerous
people came by to look and I got a chance to give out some *truthful*
information about ferrets and ferret care.
One teenage girl came over and wrinkled her nose. "Jeez, they sure do
*smell*!" she said.
I refrained from commenting on the gallon of perfume she had on, and
managed to keep my mouth shut about the smell of cigarette smoke that
wafted from her clothes. :-D
(I just told her that so many little kits kept in a small space would have
their odor amplified, and that pet ferrets usually don't smell as strongly
at all.)
